Endometriosis is a complex and often misunderstood medical condition that affects the reproductive system, primarily in individuals with a uterus. This chronic disorder occurs when tissue similar to the lining of the uterus, known as endometrium, grows outside the uterine cavity.
Endometriosis is a leading cause of pelvic pain among individuals of reproductive age, impacting millions worldwide. Despite its prevalence, the condition is frequently underdiagnosed or misdiagnosed due to a lack of awareness and the overlap of symptoms with other gynecological disorders.
The treatment of endometriosis aims to manage symptoms, reduce pain, and improve overall quality of life. The choice of treatment depends on factors such as the severity of symptoms, the desire for fertility, and the extent of the disease.
Some treatment options includ the following: NSAIDs, hormonal medications, surgical management, and complimentary therapies such as acupuncture and dietary changes.
